Addressing economic challenges in education
Balancing the budget is the biggest challenge facing schools in England according to a survey of governors and trustees by the National Governance Association.
Governors and trustees were most likely to choose balancing the budget one of their top three challenges for 2022. Just 30% reported feeling financially sustainability with current levels of funding and income. Respondents were also increasing negative about their organisation’s longer-term financial position, with only 35% believing that their organisation is sufficiently funded to deliver its vision and strategy, down from 40% in 2021.
